Reinventing Identity: Theatre of Roots and Ratan Thiyam
ISSN. 0972 - 8406 105 The NEHU Journal, Vol XIV, No. 1, January - June 2016, pp. 105-116 Reinventing Identity: Theatre of Roots and Ratan Thiyam SUBHASH CHANDRA DAS* Abstract The essay attempts to see how Ratan Thiyam, a major exponent of the theatre of roots movement, constructs a new theatrical form using rich and varied traditions of performance of his native land Manipur, and asserts his socio-political and cultural identity. Thiyam experiments with Natyasastra tradition, Western realistic tradition and Manipuri theatre tradition and amalgamates them with rich Manipuri traditions of performing arts. In so doing, he in a way not only challenges the very notion of a national theatre, but also showcases cultural richness of Manipur as distinct from the main land and asserts his identity. Keywords: Performance, Culture, Tradition, Myth, Identity, Nationalism. odern Indian theatre, which is ‘a product of colonial culture’ (Awasthi, 1989: 48), arose during the middle of Mthe nineteenth century. The first proscenium theatres were built in Bombay (Mumbai) and Calcutta (Kolkata) in 1860s. The plays staged in these theatres and in some other urban locations during this period were mainly Western plays or Indian plays which followed the Elizabethan model. Staging of such plays in proscenium theatres not only changed the concept of traditional theatre and theatre space with all its song, dance, music and mime, but also affected a separation between the cast and the audience * Subash Chandra Das is an Associate Professor in the Department of English, B. H. College, Howly, Assam. He is a Research Scholar at the Department of English, NEHU, Tura Campus.

Mahabharata in Visual and Performing Arts: Texts, Contexts and Images
Seminar on Text and Variation of the Mahabarata Session III: Mahabharata in visual and performing Arts: Texts, Contexts and Images MAHABHARATA AS REPRESENTED IN THE CLASSICAL AND CONTEMPORARY THEATRE OF KERALA Dr. K.G. Paulose Three ancient texts – Ramayana, Mahabharata and Bhagavata has moulded the mindset of Indians for centuries. Ramayana is the model for intra-domestic affairs, Mahabharata for interaction with society and Bhagavata for spiritual purity. Mahabharata, unlike the other two, is not permitted to be used for regular chanting for fear of creating quarrel in the household.1 Mahabharata presents man as he is where as the other two depicts a sophisticated and idealized levels of living. It is precisely because of this that theatre likes Mahabharata more than anything else. The influence of Mahabharata on theatre is tremendous. Bhasa and Kalidasa Mahabharata has been a veritable source for Sanskrit dramatists to develop their themes. Bhasa and Kalidasa were the earliest playwrights who were inspired by the great epic. Of the two, Bhasa revolted, often amending Vyasa by suitable substitutes and filling his silence with own interpretations. Kalidasa, on the other hand, often compromised to the epic narrative. Bhasa was sympathetic towards the characters who were marginalized, neglected and condemned - Karna, Duryodhana, Gatotkacha, etc.. He made them heroes. Krishna, Dharmaputra or even Arjuna became pale in their presence. In Pancharatra Bhasa goes to the extent of suggesting an alternative to Vyasa.2 Vyasa tells us that there is no alternative to bloodshed to solve the Kuru-Pandhava feud. It is an indirect approval for warfare. But Bhasa amends and corrects that there are alternatives, the way of negotiations, peaceful settlements.

THE THEME of BETRA YAL in INDIAN DRAMA in ENGLISH This Chapter Tries to Evaluate the Theme of Betrayal in Indian Drama
THE THEME OF BETRA YAL IN INDIAN DRAMA IN ENGLISH This chapter tries to evaluate the theme of betrayal in Indian Drama. For this purpose five plays written by Indian dramatists representing five different languages have been undertaken for study. Indian theatre could not promote Indian drama in the English language. The foremost factor responsible to harness the growth of Indian drama in English is the non availability of the living theatre. English drama written by Indian playwrights is neither excellent in quality nor greater in quantity. English, being a foreign language, was not intelligible to the masses and the playwrights found it difficult to write crisp, natural, lucid and graceful dialogues in English, which was not the language of their mental make up. Their dialogue was bound to be stilted and artificial. The English language, in India, is confined to the urban elite. R. K. Narayan ( 1999 :22 ) rightly puts it, thus : English has been with us for over a century, but it has remained the language of the intelligentsia, less than ten per cent of the population understands it. Indian dramatists cannot attain mastery to produce eloquent and elegant dialogues in English. At a national seminar on drama Dnyaneshwar Nadkarni (1984:163 ) goes to the extent of saying : Butcher them ( the Indo-AngUcan playwrights ) castrate them, and force them to write in their native Hindi or Urdu or whatever Indian languages their fathers and mothers used to speak. 260 The linguistic barrier created hurdles in the growth of Indian drama in English. Moreover, there was no English culture in India.

Most of the Child Characters of Sanskrit Drama Are Heroic
International Journal of Sanskrit Research 2017; 4(2): 07-11 International Journal of Sanskrit Research2015; 1(3):07-12 ISSN: 2394-7519 IJSR 2017; 4(2): 07-11 Most of the child characters of Sanskrit drama are © 2017 IJSR www.anantaajournal.com heroic Received: 03-05-2017 Accepted: 04-06-2017 Dr. Santigopal Das Dr. Santigopal Das Asst. Professor, Buniadpur Mahavidyalaya, D/Dinajpur, Abstract W.B, India Drama is an affluent part of Sanskrit literature. The Centre characters of Sanskrit Drama are basically Hero and Heroine. All the dramatic events are rotate depending upon Hero and Heroine. Usually the other characters remain unimportant and secondary. In the Dramas like Abhijnanasakuntalam, Swapnavasavadattam, Vikramorvosiyam etc. heroines are the main characters.The other characters remain secondary. Sometimes, the other characters play important role to bring motion in Drama. Their short presences make drama dignified and shining. Like such secondary characters an important mentioning character is child character. Sometimes the child characters seem unimportant. But sometimes we find all the events of drama rotate on child characters. For example – Bhasa’s drama ‘Valacharitam’ presents the childish behaviors and heroic activities of Sri Krishna. Again in Kalidasa’s ‘Abhijnanasakuntalam’ the short present of Sarvadamana or Varata plays a very important role and also this child character works as ‘Abhijnana’ to reconcile Dusyanta and Sakuntala. Thereafter, in the drama ‘Vikramorvosiyam’ we see very little presence of Ayu, the son of Pururava. But his sort presence reveals his bravery and childlike activities. As example, we see his deep concern when he utters – ‘if, I find myself happy to hear that he is my father and I am his son, they who brought up by their parents, are so lucky and will feel deep attachment to their parents.

Philosophical Thoughts in Invocatory Verses of Bhasa
Philosophical thoughts in invocatory verses of Bhasa - Dr. Vinay P Assistant Professor Faculty of Vedanta Karnataka Samskrit University Pampamahakavi Road, Chamarajpet, Bangalore-18 Ph: 9845324894 E-Mail: [email protected] Abstract/Introduction Bhasa is a highly acclaimed dramatist of Samskrit literature, whose hereto discovered works are 13 in number, though a 14th play (Yajnaphalam) is still debated of his authorship. Bhasa follows the tradition of Samskrit writers, who have most traditionally incorporated a benedictory or invocatory verse at the beginning of their works. It was even seriously debated in Nyaya and other schools of Indian philosophy that the Mangala (Styled Nandi in Dramas) is efficient in bringing about the completion of the work without hindrances. Whatever may be the credence and arguments of Mangalavada, it does throw light on the philosophical attitude a author has. It also shows the stage of philosophical development in the period of the poet or author. It is with this perspective that the present paper takes up the invocatory verses from the 13 plays of Bhasa for study from philosophical perspective. It shall be functional in understanding the philosophical stance taken by our poet Bhasa. It shall also be constructive to make an estimation of the philosophical development of the Pre-Christ era in India (In the southern part as well, as most feel the region of Bhasa to be the South, as also as definitely Pre-Christ by several centuries). The paper shall examine the invocatory verses in the background of Vedic and Puranic literature which Bhasa richly inherits. It is beneficial as a reminder of philosophical tradition in India after the Puranas, but just about the beginning of era of classical Samskrit literature.

East-West Theatre Encounter
East-West Theatre Encounter Closed Sessions [January 17-25, 1986, 9.30 a .m.-1.30 p.m., Little Theatre] Friday, January 17. Welcoming the participants, P. L. Deshpande, Honorary Director, National Centre f or the Performing Arts (NCPA) said: "Friends, welcome to all of you who have responded to our invitation to the East-West Theatre Encounter (EWTE). I wonder if Bombay has ever seen a gathering of such well-known national and international theatre personalities coming together to exchange ideas and compare notes about theatre. The brief bi ographical note about the participants, published in the booklet brought out on the occasion, revea ls that each one of the participants has made a significant and different type of contribution to the theatre. Despite varying geographical, linguistic, and cultural backgrounds, one common link binds all of us: the struggle to find out the meaning of theatre and a meaningful theatrical expression. In this struggle, I know you have not always met with what is commonly understood as success, but this has not frightened you away from this rather exacting and cruel art of theatre. There is nothing more tragic in the world of the performing arts than living on the memory of yesterday's success. It is a pleasure to find that all of you are working in the theatre of today. It is today and today's performance that matters most and here is a gathering of theatre artistes who are going to discuss the present the theatre of today, as they find it. It is a meeting of minds engaged in the pursuit of a common goal.

Bhasa: the Eminent Poet Dr
IJA MH International Journal on Arts, Management and Humanities 6(1): 33-35(2017) ISSN No. (Online): 2319–5231 Bhasa: The Eminent Poet Dr. Indhulekha B Harishree, TC 9/1196(2), Mangalam Lane, Sasthamangalam (P.O), Trivadrum-10, (Kerala), INDIA. (Corresponding author: Dr. Indhulekha B) (Received 02 February, 2017, Accepted 15 March, 2017) (Published by Research Trend, Website: www.researchtrend.net) ABSTRACT: Bhasa is an ancient poet, much anterior to Kalidasa. The grammatical irregularities and archaic forms found in Bhasa’s works point to a date when Panini’s grammar had not been universally accepted. Through this paper, I discussed about the prominent characteristics of Bhasa’s plays. Key Words: Bhasa, Kalidasa, Drama, Ramayana, Mahabharata I. INTRODUCTION Bhasa is an earliest well known Sanskrit dramatist. Majority of his dramas are brilliant modifications on the stories of great Indian epics Ramayana and Mahabharata . Bhasa’ s predominance is seen in the works of great dramatist Kalidasa. Bhasa has made his own techniques for the staging of his plays. For example in the plays like Balacharita and Urubhanga, Bhasa made the characters dying on the stage. According to Bharata 's ' Natyasastra ', there is a rule that a play shall not end in a tragedy. But in Urubhanga, the play ends with the death of the main character Duryodhana . II. DISCOVERY OF DRAMAS By the discovery of thirteen dramas about the year 1909-1910, by the late M.M. Ganapatisastri of Trivandrum, it seems that the lost treasure of the plays of the famous dramatist Bhasa was recovered and Bhasa ceased to be a mere name.
